Do they not fly an Irish Olympic team flag rather than a tricolour? In which case who will be making a big deal of it?

Have all-Ireland sports teams such as hockey and boxing not always travelled and competed in th'Olympics under the Irish tricolour :scratch:

Sure didn't Wayne McCullough from the Shankill not famously carry it in the 1992 opening ceremony?

There shouldn't be any flegs or anthems in the Olympics anyway, or team sports for that matter. That shyte stems from 19th century nationalism when the modern games were created, and should not be what it is about.

My reservations about nationalism aside, I'll be supporting anybody BUT GB (or what will effectively be Engerland+ in the media) :lol: :lol: :lol:

D4 is a WUM. Probably some long term poster's alter ego.
